From Good to Great

Lippert's AI Transformation Journey with Sphere

Explore

The Catalyst

Brian's arrival sharpened a simple reality: AI is now a board-level operating priority. Lippert's leadership is asking for urgency, cost discipline, and a path that avoids ungoverned experimentation while still moving quickly.

The board perspective is informed by operators who already see AI agents running around the clock. The competitive thesis is direct: teams that govern and scale faster will compound advantage while others keep paying for fragmented workflows and SaaS sprawl.

Current State and Future State

Lippert's ecosystem has strong platforms and integrations, with shadow AI behavior emerging at the perimeter where governance is weakest.

Current snapshot: fragmented pathways and unmanaged edge tooling.

Ungoverned AI Tools

The Bridge: How Sphere Connects

Sphere Org Brain connects to existing systems with policy-aware integration patterns so data stays in place while intelligence becomes portable.

The Path: Crawl, Walk, Run

State: awakening

Secure AI access and replace shadow usage with visibility.

Secure AI access, replace shadow AI, build agent library, establish visibility.

Expected timeline: 30-90 days. Success means governed access is live, shadow tools are replaced, and core workflows are observable.

State: connected

Automate cross-system workflows with governed agents.

AP invoice processing, cross-system Q&A, first autonomous agents.

Expected timeline: 3-6 months. Success means high-volume workflows are partially autonomous and users trust cross-system answers.

State: autonomous

Scale to continuous, supervised digital operations.

Operate 24/7, replace SaaS dependency, shift humans to oversight.

Expected timeline: 6-12 months. Success means digital workers run continuously with policy constraints and human oversight.
